2025 Signature Event: Main Event
As is the case for many headed to Arlington, a trip to the Main Event is the culmination of years worth of work for Caleb Trugman. The 6-foot-5, 210-pound righty has grown up in front of our eyes over the past few years; we first saw him at a Regional Combine in Los Angeles in 2023, and he has since earned trips to the Underclass Elite, Underclass Premier and multiple Underclass Combines since.
A UC Santa Barbara commit, the future for Trugman is on the mound, where he’s up to 93 while also flashing a change and curve, the latter of which did some serious damage against hitters at our National Combine this July.
